MySQL Optimization Guidance Needed

Database Administrators Asked by enyceexdanny on December 22, 2021

UPDATE 6/23/2020:

Haven’t noticed any odd CPU spikes lately, but noticed that the MySQL memory footprint grows indefinitely until it goes OOM and is killed by the kernel. Where should I start looking first?


I’m looking for some MySQL tuning help. It seems that every so often mysqld process’ CPU consumption shoots to way over 100%, and I’m thinking it’s likely due to poor configuration.

This server is used to host about 50 accounts along with emails, mostly simple wordpress/joomla installs, along with 5 Magento 1.9 installations.

-------- Recommendations ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
General recommendations:
    Control warning line(s) into /var/lib/mysql/mysql_error.log file
    Control error line(s) into /var/lib/mysql/mysql_error.log file
    Reduce your overall MySQL memory footprint for system stability
    Dedicate this server to your database for highest performance.
    Reduce or eliminate persistent connections to reduce connection usage
    Configure your accounts with ip or subnets only, then update your configuration with skip-name-resolve=1
    We will suggest raising the 'join_buffer_size' until JOINs not using indexes are found.
             See https://dev.mysql.com/doc/internals/en/join-buffer-size.html
             (specially the conclusions at the bottom of the page).
    Temporary table size is already large - reduce result set size
    Reduce your SELECT DISTINCT queries without LIMIT clauses
    Increase table_open_cache gradually to avoid file descriptor limits
    Read this before increasing table_open_cache over 64: https://bit.ly/2Fulv7r
    Read this before increasing for MariaDB https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/optimizing-table_open_cache/
    This is MyISAM only table_cache scalability problem, InnoDB not affected.
    See more details here: https://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=49177
    This bug already fixed in MySQL 5.7.9 and newer MySQL versions.
    Beware that open_files_limit (15000) variable
    should be greater than table_open_cache (7420)
Variables to adjust:
  *** MySQL's maximum memory usage is dangerously high ***
  *** Add RAM before increasing MySQL buffer variables ***
    max_connections (> 150)
    wait_timeout (< 28800)
    interactive_timeout (< 28800)
    join_buffer_size (> 128.0M, or always use indexes with JOINs)
    table_open_cache (> 7420)
    innodb_buffer_pool_instances(=18)

Observations:

  • Version: 5.7.29-log
  • 32 GB of RAM
  • Uptime = 2d 22:25:12
  • You are not running on Windows.
  • Running 64-bit version
  • It appears that you are running both MyISAM and InnoDB.

The More Important Issues:

Consider moving the rest of your MyISAM tables to InnoDB. Conversion from MyISAM to InnoDB

Contradiction: ulimit -n says 1024, but table_open_cache = 7420 -- Please double check both. 1024 is unreasonably low. The number of misses and overflows says that even 7420 is too low. Or perhaps there are too many tables in the schema design.

WordPress's meta tables have inefficient indexes. Help: http://mysql.rjweb.org/doc.php/index_cookbook_mysql#speeding_up_wp_postmeta

innodb_buffer_pool_size seems to be much bigger than the dataset. This is not a performance problem, but it does waste RAM.

innodb_flush_neighbors = 0 since you have SSD.

There are some indications of poorly performing queries. See http://mysql.rjweb.org/doc.php/mysql_analysis#slow_queries_and_slowlog fo setting up the slowlog to identify them and get started into fixing them. (High CPU comes from indexing and queries more than from tuning variables.)

There is a lot of "savepoint" usage. I wonder if the logic could be simplified.

Details and other observations:

( table_open_cache ) = 7,420 -- Number of table descriptors to cache -- Several hundred is usually good.

( Table_open_cache_overflows ) = 443,831 / 253512 = 1.8 /sec -- May need to increase table_open_cache (now 7420)

( Table_open_cache_misses ) = 455,487 / 253512 = 1.8 /sec -- May need to increase table_open_cache (now 7420)

( Table_open_cache_misses / (Table_open_cache_hits + Table_open_cache_misses) ) = 455,487 / (14634100 + 455487) = 3.0% -- Effectiveness of table_open_cache. -- Increase table_open_cache (now 7420) and check table_open_cache_instances (now 16).

( innodb_lru_scan_depth * innodb_page_cleaners ) = 1,024 * 4 = 4,096 -- Amount of work for page cleaners every second. -- "InnoDB: page_cleaner: 1000ms intended loop took ..." may be fixable by lowering lru_scan_depth: Consider 1000 / innodb_page_cleaners (now 4). Also check for swapping.

( innodb_page_cleaners / innodb_buffer_pool_instances ) = 4 / 12 = 0.333 -- innodb_page_cleaners -- Recommend setting innodb_page_cleaners (now 4) to innodb_buffer_pool_instances (now 12)

( innodb_lru_scan_depth ) = 1,024 -- "InnoDB: page_cleaner: 1000ms intended loop took ..." may be fixed by lowering lru_scan_depth

( Innodb_buffer_pool_pages_free * 16384 / innodb_buffer_pool_size ) = 1,102,876 * 16384 / 18432M = 93.5% -- buffer pool free -- buffer_pool_size is bigger than working set; could decrease it

( Innodb_buffer_pool_pages_free / Innodb_buffer_pool_pages_total ) = 1,102,876 / 1179504 = 93.5% -- Pct of buffer_pool currently not in use -- innodb_buffer_pool_size (now 19327352832) is bigger than necessary?

( Innodb_buffer_pool_bytes_data / innodb_buffer_pool_size ) = 1,215,627,264 / 18432M = 6.3% -- Percent of buffer pool taken up by data -- A small percent may indicate that the buffer_pool is unnecessarily big.

To make the ulimit -n 128000 persistent across OS shutdown / restart or powerfailure, this URL is an overview. Your requirements may be different, depending on OS specifics.

Do not set your limit to 500,000 as listed in this URL, please. You should be good at 128000 for now.

https://glassonionblog.wordpress.com/2013/01/27/increase-ulimit-and-file-descriptors-limit/

The 28,000 cushion is for apps other than MySQL to have file handles available.

Rate Per Second = RPS

Suggestions for your my.cnf [mysqld] section

open_files_limit=100000  # from whatever you have today - I see varying #'s
innodb_open_files=64000  # from 7420 reported in SHOW GLOBAL STATUS;
table_open_cache=64000  # from 7420 reported in SHOW GLOBAL STATUS;
max_connect_errors=10  # from 1000000 - no point in allowing hacker/cracker abuse
thread_cache_size=100  # from 9 to reduce threads_created count
read_rnd_buffer_size=128K  # from 256K to reduce handler_read_rnd_next RPS of 109,046

These changes will minimize workload of opening ~ 6000 tables per hour (current RPhr)

There are many more Global Variable opportunities to improve your instance performance.

Visit our website, Utility Scripts to download free Utility Scripts to assist with performance tuning. You will need findfragtables.sql and find-redundant-indexes.sql very helpful in reducing CPU cycle use and storage required for data tables and indexes.

Your biggest problem currently is the table_open_cache size. This can be change dynamicly SET GLOBAL table_open_cache = 10000 (account for your open_file_limit of 15/16k as each open item needs a file descriptor).

I can't see what version you are using however if mariadb, look at its documentation otherwise mysql documentation (adjust URL to major version 5.7/8.0).

Innodb buffer pool/innodb_buffer_pool_instances isn't helping the pool is significantly larger than your datasize. (could be reduced down to ~4G - no harm being big, just a bit wasteful).

Look at setting long_query_time to 1 second or less and enable the slow query log. The mysql-tuner results on tmp table usage and joins not using index show there are a number of queries performing badly due to poor indexing. Once you have some common ones of these identified ask new questions about them, showing EXPLAIN {query}, the query and SHOW CREATE TABLE {tablename} for the tables involved. https://www.percona.com/doc/percona-toolkit/LATEST/pt-query-digest.html will help prioritize the slow query log results.

Please state your MySQL version and OS if you need further clarification.
